I will be able to rest easy knowing the van won't set on fire while I'm asleep now.

Electrical service - any suppliers?

Hi all, Got a 1982 VW Westie Joker that's NOT been treated nicely. It's going through a full refurb at the moment, but I'd like to get an electrical engineer to service/replace the wiring to make sure it's working safely and efficiently - plus adding a solar panel for leisure battery charging. Does ...

Re: Original 3-way fridge: to replace or not to replace?

Thanks all. We do have a 110v leisure battery fitted and was thinking of getting a solar panel fitted to ensure the charge is consistent. What I'm looking for is a system that genuinely keeps things cold even in high temperature and something which doesn't rely on my trying to find gas to fill up th...

Re: Original 3-way fridge: to replace or not to replace?

The issue is, I bought the campervan and since we've had it, it's pretty much been in the garage being worked on, so I've tested the fridge but only for short tests. I'm hoping for something that will support us travelling for a few months and equally not be too much of a power drain. I've been told...

Original 3-way fridge: to replace or not to replace?

Hi all, I've got the original Electrolux 3-way fridge in the van. It works fine (apparently) but not tested it on a trip as yet. My wife and I are planning a European trip for 6 weeks and wanted to ask whether it's worth keeping the original and maybe getting it serviced - or replacing it with a Wae...

Early Westie upholstery cleaning

Hi guys, I've got a 1982 VW Westie Joker high top and doing a full (and boy, do I mean full) refurb on her at the moment. My question is that I want to give the original fabric covers on the seats a bit of a spruce up, plus potentially replacing the foam inside. I know they were originally Scotchgua...
